There seems to be problem with DB2 jdbc driver, have you upgraded the jdbc level :
Update the JDBC level IBM WebSphere Application Server V4.0 requires JDBC2.0, whereas the default installation of IBM DB2 uses JDBC1.2. To update the DB2 JDBC level, complete the following
steps: 1. Stop the DB2 JDBC Applet Server Windows service as follows: D:\> net stop "DB2 JDBC Applet Server"
2. In a command window, change to the <db2_install_path>\java12 directory where you installed DB2 and the type the following command: <db2_install_path>\java12\> usejdbc2.bat

did you check whether db2java.zip is in classpath. Refer admin.config, and make sure that all db2 related libraries are in classpath.
Also check (in case you ahve changed db2 password) :
1. After changing db2admin password, did you see whether admin.config file is modified properly to connect to db repository. Check which schema you are using inside admin.config for storing config data.
2. If you have just installed WAS V4, have u done what I specified above.
3. Check whether your DB2 services are properly started, go to services and try to start all the services, also go to db2 command line processor (I suppose you are on windows), if on unix, then go to db2 prompt and connect to WAS db repository, do "list tables for all" or "list tables", check whether WAS tables have been there and also their data is accessible.

Hi

Could someone let me know where in the WAS4.0 installation DB is being created ?

When I went to DB2 command line here's what I get...

db2 => list tables
SQL1024N A database connection does not exist. SQLSTATE=08003

Thanks
